Summary: Good transitional movie
Review: One of my favorite movies with some likes and dis-likes.Malcom McDowell does an outstanding job, I think his performance greatly enhanced this movie, Patrick Stuart is a little disapointing, his counselling sesion with Troi is off, His crying wasn't very emotional. Some charachtors were shunned in the movie, mainly Crusher and Worf. Data's new emotion chip brought out the best in him Kirk is perhaps the worst, " Oh MY " Is that the way Fans want to see the CAPTAIN go out, Heck no, and the " It was...Fun" was kinda stupid. overall a good movie,

Summary: THE MOST DEPRESSING TREK FILM EVER!
Review: STAR TREK: GENERATIONS is the saddest film ever in the series. The visual effects, although stunning, aren't really anything to marvel at. The storyline is good, but not great. Data (Brent Spiner) is funnier than he has ever been, thanks to the installment of a new "emtoion chip." He always comes up withe pretty funny one liners (after opening a magnetically-sealed door with his axial-servo, he says "You could say, I have a magnetic personality."). The down-side of this film is several things: 1) The Enterprise NCC-1701-D is destroyed. That was by far the second greatest ship to bear that name (NCC-1701-A was the best). Still, they brought an even better Enterprise for STAR TREK: FIRST CONTACT. 2) Picard's brother and nephew are killed in a fire. It shows that Picard, who we've seen as a person who wouldn't show almost any emotion, has a soft spot. It really shows how great Stewart is as an actor. 3) Captain Kirk, the best character in all of the STAR TREK films, dies. This was the part of the film I hated the most. Why did they have to kill Kirk off? He could've just rejoined starfleet in the 24th century. But, alas, it wasn't to be. Still, with all its downfalls, it is a good TREK film that all fans will love. Grade: A-

Summary: Another great Star Trek movie
Review: "Star Trek Generations" is an instant classic in my book. Crews from the original Star Trek series and from The Next Generation team up to try and stop a madman from putting an end to the world. What I liked the best about this movie is that it has some classic scenes that most Star Trek fans have probably been waiting for. When Captain Kirk and Captain Picard finally meet, that's what you call classic. They both find out what Nexus is and travel to the past to where they both have a family and a place to live on earth. It's even better when they team up to try and stop the madman. "Star Trek Generations" is only the fourth Star Trek movie I've seen so far, so I can't say whether it's my favorite Trek movie of all, but so far out of the ones I've seen, I like this one and "Wrath of Khan" the best. If you're a Star Trek fan or if you like sci-fi movies, I recommend getting "Star Trek Generations" as soon as you can.

Summary: Storyline - No. Action - AH YEAH!
Review: I was totally amazed after watching Generations the 1st time. I didn't think once about the actual story for I was so drawn into the action scenes and special effects. This is good for you get to see how the Enterprise D is destroyed, er, disabled you could say. Being nearly blown apart by a Klingon vessel, then punched by an exploding shocked wave, followed by crashing onto a planet is good action if I ever seen any. Now for the story line. Upon watching the film over and over, I began to focus on storyline. Not that great. It's good they reunitd the 2 captains, but the way they did it seems almost as if the creators "just threw something together" to make it happen. Kirk's death is wierd. He dies for a good cause, to save millions. But the "Oh my" as his final words, whatever that means. Overall, get this. The action is too good to miss.

Summary: Did... We... Make... A... Difference??
Review: "Yes, yes, we did make a difference." Those are some of the last words in this movie. You would know who said them and why, if you saw the movie. If you didn't, I pity you. This is the best ST movie ever. Besides The Search For Spock. It's about a mad scientist called Dr. Tolian Soren (Malcolm McDowel who does a brilliant performance) who wants to return to a place called the Nexus. It is place were dreams become realities, those who go there never want to leave. In order to do that he must make the gatway to the Nexus (An energy ribbon)come to him by destroying stars. Because any other way results in catastrophe. The movie starts when Kirk is swept away in the Nexus on a rescue mission with the Enterprise-B. Later Picard and company find out about Soran's plans but fail. The Enterprise-D is destroyed and Soran and Picard are swept into the Nexus. Picard finds Kirk to help him and they go back in time for a final showdown against Soran. Who wins? You'll have to find out when you watch the movie. Data also uses his emotion chip for the first time. The best parts in the movie are the parts with Data and Guinan and the scenes in the Nexus. I give it *Blows out five birthday candles for no apparent reason but to do so* FIVE STARS!!!

Summary: Not even a lousy teaser or theatrical trailer?
Review: You can debate whether this film works or not until you're blue in the face. But what I want to know is why did Paramount decide not to include the trailer's of this film onto the DVD? I know Trek fans have been rather disappointed in the slim pickens of Special Features for all Star Trek films as well as the original TV series, but what I don't get is that all the other films come with a trailer(s) and 'Generations does not. Why? 'First Contact was the first Star Trek DVD released and it has both the teaser and theatrical trailer included. Paramount should be giving us what we want and that is audio commentarries with cast and crew and maybe a special one with the directors, deleted scenes either restored or put aside, isolated score's, Trek games you could play with your remote control, DVD-ROM features, cast and crew bios, production notes, and finally, a making of or documentary feature. The only two available now (and the longest one is about 15 min) are on Part IV and 'Inserrection. I'm talking about and hour, hour and a half behind the scenes look with everyone involved. There's plenty of room on the disc for all of this and considering that Paramount's retail price for these DVD's is .... you really do feel cheated that they're not on there. They need to take a cue from Universal Pictures, whose Collector's Edition DVD's are, in my opinion, the best out there and they're already bringing the prices of many of them down. Look at all the special features you get with 'Jaws for example and that was only .... Paramount and Disney are the biggest Scrooges in the DVD world (Disney charges ... for their one disc special editions) and I say "Stop taking advantage of the consumer! Give us what we want! And don't charge us an arm and a leg for it either! "

Summary: Giving Trek V a run for its money
Review: Generations isn't worse than Trek V, but at times it feels close. This movie has its good moments. Brent Spiner shines in the film, and Patrick Stewart somehow makes even the hokey parts seem passable. But it's when these two are offscreen that we miss them most, for the movie's concept is so terrible that any distraction from it is a blessing. Like Trek V and Insurrection, Generations plays like an episode. Actually it plays a lot like the lame 7th-season episodes that just preceded it. A madman intent on returning to his own personal paradise decides to kill millions of people--not much of a movie plot, all things considered. Taking the movie's worst moments one by one, the failure of the writers is astounding. When under attack by a significantly smaller vessel that can penetrate their shields, the Enterprise bridge crew don't remodulate the shields (practically the first resort of every episode from the 4th season on), nor fire back, nor make significant evasive maneuvers; they just sit there and get hit again and again while scratching their heads. An engineer who has saved the ship hundreds of times can't manage to do it even after the crisis has been over for five minutes. The climax of the movie: A fist fight between Kirk and the bad guy (oh, please). Although die-hard Trekkies will probably want this in their library anyway and others are unlikely to even care, it bears noting that this is the second-worst Trek film ever made.

Summary: Passable 'Trek fare, with a few (literally) missing moments
Review: I thought that 'Generations' was a decent entry into the Star Trek movie canon, and was better than most of the odd-numbered 'Trek movies, AKA the ones that are considered the worst of the feature film series. However, it lacked direction and emotion at times. The highlights were Data's newfound emotions, and his hilarious over-the-top efforts to control them. Some of his antics could give Jim Carrey a run for his money! But despite this, 'Generations' didn't seem to put much effort into 'passing the torch' from the original show to the Next Generation. Fortunately, the subsequent 'Trek outing, 'First Contact', proved with little doubt NextGen's worthiness in taking over and maintaining the film franchise. But aside from the movie itself, I was disappointed that Paramount opted not to restore any of the scenes that were cut from the theatrical version of the movie into the DVD release. A less-than-pleasant surprise, considering the studio did restore footage to the video and DVD releases of 'The Motion Picture' and 'The Undiscovered Country'. There are a significant number of moments from 'Generations' that never quite made it past the cutting room, including Captain Kirk's skydive landing in a wheat field, Soran's nanoprobe torture of LaForge, and other smaller scenes. Even the original Kirk death scene (shot in the back?) would've been a neat Special Features addition to look at. Alas, no luck... just a trailer and some brief actor bio's are the only extras on the disc. 'Late

Summary: A DVD that will span all Generations
Review: The bottle of champagne at the start of the film is a symbolic toast to Star Trek. The film captures the relationships of the crew, and the Enterprise-D. Even the modifications to make the bridge look better for the film looked out of place, because these actors were so familiar on their set. The actors made their first transition to the silver screen smoothly. Although the film did fall under the "trek curse" of odd films, it mostly went unscathed. Kirk fans were upset with the famous character's death scene, yet I have always maintained that the scene was done in a way that was appropriate to Kirk. The cut scenes which have been rumored (the hang glider, the Scotty conversations) would have been a nice addition to this DVD, but all is well. The lack of the trailer makes the DVD feel naked, but the film is still in excellent quality. I am surprised that it was not included, since all of the other Star Trek DVD's have their respective trailers, but c'est la vie. Overall, the film was very true to its own, did not violate any cannon trek rules, and makes a fine addition to the Trek DVD.
